UI

The Full Screen check box in the Graphics Options has been replaced by a Screen Mode drop-down menu, from which you can select Windowed, Full Screen, and (in Windows) Full Screen (Windowed), which runs the game in a borderless window at desktop resolution.

There is now an option under UI Settings to show a "stand your ground" banner for hirelings and class pets.

There is now an NPC in the Hall of Heroes and on guild airships that allow a character to temporarily suspend their Bravery Bonus. This is a toggle, and will remain in effect until toggled again by speaking to the NPC. The Bravery Bonus will not reset nor increment when suspended.

There is now a Search box and a "Show All" button at the top of the Options Panel, allowing you to show only options matching particular text.

There is a new PvMP area in Osgiliath. You can access this new area via the Sundering of Osgiliath banners in your faction’s Ettenmoors base.

Players can now equip cosmetic weapons. You can do so by going to your cosmetic outfits tab and placing the cosmetic weapon you would like in the newly added spot.

The Ballad of Bingo Boffin will be starting on July 22. Keep an eye on your mailbox that Wednesday!

There are 10 new roving threats that have appeared in Evendim, Mirkwood, and The North Downs. Make sure you are careful when you are out adventuring.

General

Kinships: if a Kinship with a House disbands, Decorations and items in Kinship Housing Storage which are not bound to other players will be sent to the (former) Kin Leader's personal house storage or escrow. Bound items will be returned to the appropriate players, as before.

Roving Threat barter prices have been reduced. You can now buy Anfalas Scrolls of Empowerment and LI XP runes from the Roving Threat barter vendors.

You can now purchase more than one character slot at once.

The Lute of Ages now has a unique appearance.

Fixed a bunch of cases where various NPCs forgot their lines. Animals will also now correctly tell you when they are threatening to attack.

Fixed a case where occasionally imbued legacies were not applied correctly after reviving.

Fixed a problem where links to weapons could show "String Table Error" if the weapon in question was mailed away.

Imbued Legendary Items now play the familiar swirling-swords FX when their main legacy levels up.

There's a new, turned-on-by-default option under "UI Settings" to control whether you want to see the visual effects that represent weapon damage types.

You can now cosmetically equip weapon appearances. Weapons can now be dragged in/out of the wardrobe, same as armor.

You can now rename all Legendary Items any time instead of only at reforge by clicking the "Rename" button in the "Legendary Items" panel.

You can now see the map of Dunland when you are in the Pristine Glade.

Introducing the Warlock Class! These Eldritch casters form pacts with powerful beings, and seek out rare and often forbidden knowledge. They deal large amounts of damage with their Eldritch Blast, and back that damage up with a variety of bluff, control, and utility abilities. Features three all-new Enhancement Trees!

We have added the ability to use multiple rep items at once: Alt-right-click on a stack of rep items to get a dialog which allows you to choose how many items you want to use. You can remap the mouse button/modifier for this action through the options/key mapping panel.

We have made it so that the base right-click/doubleclick to use an item functionality never kicks in when you hold one of the modifier keys (alt, ctrl, shift, win).

Reputation acceleration tomes can now be multi-used via alt-right-click.

The third-person camera now follows your character more loosely while using a travel route, making camera movement feel a little smoother.

Legendary Item Imbuement is live!
Imbuement is an opt-in process available at level 100 that permanently transforms a Legendary Item. Once Imbued, it never needs to be re-forged or reconfigured again. That means an item that feels more, well, legendary. Read more about it here!

A new instance cluster has arrived!
It has been some time since we said those words, “new Instance Cluster.” Ask and ye shall receive. For some time now players have been asking for new instances, so based on that feedback we have added three new instances with Update 16: The Sunken Labyrinth, The Ruined City and The Dome of Stars. You can read more about these new instances here.

New Regions
Spanning the rolling fields that run between the rivers Sirith and Erui, Upper Lebennin is a lakennd still mostly unscarred by the wars that have ravaged the surrounding provinces. For this reason, many folk have traveled west from the great citadel of Minas Tirith to take refuge in the fortified mountain-vale of Tumladen. Meanwhile, dark rumors are spreading that something fell lurks at the Crossings of Erui, where long ago Castamir the Usurper met his end.

Among the fiefs of Gondor, Lossarnach is widely considered the most beautiful. A land whose people are proud of ancient traditions, it is ablaze with flowers and blossoming trees. Forlong the Fat, beloved by all, has ridden to war from his stronghold of Arnach, and most of its people have fled to the refuge of Imloth Melui, renowned across the kingdom for both its healers and its vast gardens of rosebushes. Here, too, lies the Harlond, the river-harbor that serves the city of Minas Tirith, where the Corsairs of Umbar once planned to make their landing … and where Aragorn now plans to sail with his captured fleet.

Long ago, South Ithilien was one of the realm’s mightiest and fairest regions, but now, though still lovely, it lies forlorn, abandoned by its people. Orcs and worse haunt its overgrown ruins, and the great refuge of Bâr Húrin -- ancestral home of the House of the Ruling Stewards -- crumbles among the hills of Emyn Arnen. Only the Rangers, commanded by Captain Faramir, remain to keep watch on the Enemy in the shadow of the Mountains of Mordor.

The grand city of Osgiliath, once Gondor’s capital, has seen many woes. Standing athwart the River Anduin, it is a shattered shell of its former glory, long forsaken and left in shambles. The orcs of the Morgul Vale now teem in the city’s eastern half, under the command of the Lord of the Nazgûl. At last word, the defenders of Gondor still hold the western shores, but how long they can endure the Witch-king’s hosts is a question whose answer will likely prove grim.Epic Volume IV, Book 3: ‘Voices of the Past’
The Battle of Pelargir has ended in victory for Aragorn and the Grey Company, and now the Chieftain of the Dúnedain turns his eyes toward Minas Tirith. How can he come to the White City in time? He enlists your aid to keep secret the defeat of the Corsairs and to learn what has become of Faramir, son of the Steward, and the city he was charged to defend.
